Book description
Whether it's a curse or a blessing the fact remains: whenever Roger is
in enough pain he can cross over to the Land of the Dead and speak to
the people there. It's an unexpected gift - and one that, throughout
Roger's life, has been taken advantage of; by his violent uncle, by the
mysterious, malign Soulviners performing their dark magic on Soulvine
Moor, and even by a Queen, fighting for her queendom with every possible
weapon she can find. But not anymore. The dangerous life of Queen's Fool
is behind him, young Princess Stephanie sits on the throne, and Roger is
living a life of his choosing. He, Maggie and Jee have a small, out of
the way, increasingly prosperous inn, supported by their hard work. It's
a simple, industrious life . . . and it's about to be destroyed. The war
is not over. The savage invaders are back. And they're looking for the
boy who killed their leader. They're looking for Roger.
